Join a forward-thinking organization as an Associate Power Systems Technology Engineer. This entry-level role offers a unique opportunity to work on complex engineering projects that impact the energy sector. You will be involved in testing and enhancing software applications that ensure reliable electricity delivery. Collaborate with a dynamic team in a hybrid work environment, where your contributions will be recognized and rewarded. If you are passionate about power systems and eager to grow your skills in a supportive atmosphere, this position is perfect for you.
Associate Power Systems Technology Engineer (Hybrid) Full-time
The California Independent System Operator (ISO) manages the flow of electricity across the high-voltage, long-distance power lines that make up 80 percent of California's power grid. We safeguard the economy and well-being of 30 million Californians by operating the grid reliably 24 / 7.
As the impartial grid operator, the California ISO opens access to the wholesale power market that is designed to diversify resources and lower prices. It also grants equal access to 25,865 circuit-miles of power lines and reduces barriers to diverse resources competing to bring power to customers.
The California ISO's function is often compared to that of air traffic controllers. It would be grossly unfair for air traffic controllers to represent one airline and profit from allowing that company's planes to go through before others. In the same way, the California ISO operates independently, managing the electron traffic on a power grid we do not own, making sure electricity is safely delivered to utilities and consumers on time and reliably.
The California ISO is committed to the health, safety, and work / life integration of its employees and is proud to offer flexible work arrangements. This position would be eligible to participate in an on-site or hybrid schedule.
Relocation Assistance is available.
Under the close supervision of the Manager, develops skills and knowledge towards complex engineering projects and assignments, supports power system studies, integrates, enhances and supports advanced applications. Acts as coordinator and tester in the design, engineering and testing of market software (Real Time and Day Ahead Market Applications) and network applications (State Estimator (SE), Real Time Contingency Analysis (RTCA), Dispatcher Load Flow, etc. in EMS) software. Anticipates, identifies and resolves engineering-related problems or potential problems within assigned areas and may propose solutions to such issues. Coordinates software changes with other internal departments and with associated vendors as appropriate. Provides technical support and business rule support to other departments and external entities relating to market and reliability operations. Participates in various customer initiatives including but not limited to Energy Imbalance Market (EIM) and Reliability Coordination (RC).
What's In It for You
